Un nouveau Nerillidae, Xenonerilla bactericola, nouveau genre et nouvelle espece, est decrit des sediments hypoxiques du Bassin de Santa Barbara, au large de la Californie sud. L'espece n'est rencontree couramment que dans les sediments riches en mattes de bacteries filamenteuses sulfoxydantes. Le corps comprend un petit prostomium et neuf segments, le dernier fusionne avec le pygidium. La tete a deux larges palpes ventru-lateraux et pas d'antennes. Le premier segment (segment buccal) n'a ni…

Nerillidae (Annelida) from the Corona lava tube, Lanzarote, with description of Meganerilla cesari n. sp.

Five species of Nerillidae are previously known from Atlantic cave systems. Another four species of Nerillidae are reported here from the Corona lava tube (Lanzarote, Canary Islands) presenting the…

Interstitial Annelida

This article provides a review of the evolution, systematics, and diversity of these interstitial families, with the exception of Parergodrilidae, which was detailed in the review of Orbiniida by Meca, Zhadan, and Struck within this Special Issue.

Nephridial and gonoduct distribution patterns in Nerillidae (Annelida: Polychaeta) examined by tubulin staining and cLSM

The results indicate that gonoducts and nephridia have developed from the same anlagen and are of systematic significance within genera of the interstitial polychaete family Nerillidae.

Mesonerilla neridae sp. nov. (Nerillidae): First meiofaunal annelid from deep-sea hydrothermal vents

This is the first record of an adult meiofaunal annelid from deep-sea hydrothermal vent areas and the firstrecord of Mesonerilla from the deep sea.

Phylogeny of Nerillidae (Polychaeta, Annelida) as inferred from combined 18S rDNA and morphological data

A regressive pathway within Nerillidae is indicated for several characters, however, generally implying several convergent losses, and numerous genera are shown to require revision.

An ectobiont-bearing foraminiferan, Bolivina pacifica, that inhabits microxic pore waters: cell-biological and paleoceanographic insights.

An association is described between Bolivina pacifica, a foraminiferan with a calcareous test, and a rod-shaped microbe (bacterium or archaeon) that is directly associated with the pores of the foraminifieran's test, suggesting active exchange between the host and ectobiont.

Evolution of interstitial Polychaeta (Annelida)

Three new supplementary evolutionary hypotheses for these families are here suggested: basal position of Diurodrilidae in Polychaeta, evolution of Nerillidae in mud, and evolution from meio- to macrofaunal forms of Psammodrilidae.

Marine microbial thiotrophic ectosymbioses

The sulphur-oxidising chemolithotrophic nature of the bacteria and their nutritive importance to the eukaryote host have been demonstrated for the ciliates Kentrophoros spp.

Association of rhizobia with a marine polychaete.

16S rRNA investigation of the bacterial community associated with the marine polychaete Meganerilla bactericola discovered the presence of bacteria belonging to Mesorhizobium, a genus best known for its nitrogen-fixing symbiosis with terrestrial legumes.

Pharynx

Professor Dieulafoy considers patients to be suffering from a masked and sluggish type of tuberculosis of the pharynx, and that, aided by a natural predisposition to infection residing in the individual, the bacillus has gained access to the tonsils, palatine or pharyngeal, either by inhalation or by the food swallowed.
